CNN breaking: Freidman's plea deal got "sweetened" after the Cohen raid.

He rejected an earlier offer. Got a better offer after the raid.

Preet Bahara says it could have happened for some other reason, that plea deals frequently get turned down and sweetened.

Still . . . he also said, "It's probably not great news for Michael Cohen."
